After my Sunday, April 8, 2018 appeal to all 13 identified prospective WGSCC roundtable participants, I am pleased to report the following, which is current as of this writing:

DEENA LADD: Workers’ Action Centre

Status: *ATTENDING*
JOHN CLARKE: Ontario Coalition Against Poverty
Toronto, ON
Status: *ATTENDING*
VICTOR ELKINS: Hospital Employees Union
Vancouver, BC
Status: *ATTENDING*
SEAN SMITH: Toronto Airport Workers’ Council

Status: *ATTENDING*
*2. BUILDING AN INCLUSIVE LABOUR MOVEMENT (SOLIDARITY ACROSS BOUNDARIES)*
FRED HAHN: CUPE Ontario

Status: *ATTENDING*
CHRIS RAMSAROOP: Justice for Migrant Workers

PAM PALMATER: Indigenous Rights Advocate/Author/Academic (Ryerson University)

BASIA SOKAL: President, Winnipeg Labour Council

ALIA KARIM: Fight for $15 Movement
Toronto, ON

SCOTT CHRICTON: IBEW 424/Alberta Labour History Institute Board
Edmonton, AB

++++++++++
This has been a very fruitful appeal, which can be summarized as follows:
*ATTENDING: 9*
*TENTATIVELY ATTENDING: 3*
*NO REPLY: 1*
*TOTAL: 13*
*It’s my recommendation that we can include all prospective roundtable participant names within the SSHRC application, save for Jerry Woods, who has yet to reply, unfortunately.* To the latter, I will continue to seek out Jerry’s participation this week and moving forward. Alongside, Leslie Spillett would be a great addition to our conference — this, as discussed at the March 3, 2018 meeting of the WGSCC Committee. I will approach her as you all advise.
All my best for now!
Krishna
